You also have to come up with your own explanations for, say, the extinction of the dinosaurs:

You also have to decry Nasa's images of Earth as fake; and try to explain the Coriolis effect, the ice caps, or the rotations of the stars in different hemispheres.
It becomes a bit of a headache.
Tesla and SpaceX billionaire Elon Musk is the latest to muse on the phenomenon.

Possibly because you can observe from Earth that Mars is spherical, whereas flat Earthers probably haven't seen the spherical Earth from space.
Honestly, it's not worth thinking about.
